Bitcoin Enters the Staking Landscape On the other hand, Bitcoin began its staking journey at the end of August with the Bitcoin staking protocol Babylon. P2P.org revealed that Babylon’s staking launch was successful, as the protocol reached its 1,000 BTC deposit cap in four hours. The platform also…
